Phoenix Gold Ti Elite Component Speakers? Anyone have any feedback? Ebay has em in my $$ range. Are they worth the $$? Anyone know anything about em? Next... Rockford Fosgate Type RF Component Speakers. Any one heard these? How are they? Top of the line RF has to be good at somethin. Any body...

They overrate their amps. Have pretty half ass subs and speakers. But make decent head units. The high end model with the LCD screen is clean. Man that screen is so sharp, but it is a great head unit, kinda lengthy menus, but good none the less. Steer clear of Xploding amps and speakers.

I heard a PG Xenon earlier today at my homie's shop. It was the next smaller size mono amp, 800 watts i think.. It was pushing cerwin vega vmax 12S, which are surprisingly good subs, especially for the $$. I asked about the amp, he said that the rated RMS goes up from 800 with lower...

JOE!!!???? JOE!!!???? WOW.... THAT WAS CERTAINLY, A VERY NICE TURKEY. BUT, YOU KNOW WHAT I HAVNT HAD IN A LONG TIME??? big leaugue chew.....

Cool. So it seems all signs point Pioneer/Premier. Ill definitely check em out, the new Panasonic HU w/Tripath amp. 60watts x4 RMS looks off the hook. I don't think id need a 4-ch amp w/ 60RMS per ch. just sittin in the dash... more companies gotta pick up on class T amps. I mean Tsunami's...

Which ID MAX??? A V.2 or V.3??? I'm pretty sure those were the models. So, do the Brahmas really, hold their own with the ID Max?? I was real impressed with the ID's SQ and consistency. If it was really neck and neck, id say go ID cause' of the cool name, and the understated styling. + ID...

Trust me. If you get the 9500 sledgehammer(s) and power to RMS with a burly ass amp. 2 if not 3 or 4 Kappas could be mobbed over by 2 9500 10's for sure. The Kappa Perfect 12" VQ handles 400 watts RMS. Try 800 watts RMS for a thunder9500 10"!!! Straight up 1000watts for the 12's. There is no...

OUCH!! I admit, Ive never heard the Brahmas but in my experience the MTX9500's are painfully loud and still have excellent SQ. Im willin to wager that technically speaking the MTX9500 is a superior sub. Brahma just sounds too... swap-meet kinda like Performance Tecknique, i could be very wrong...

I have heard the new P5's and they sound like $80 subs. You can always spot the lower end equip. by the low price tag. Thus the inferior sound quality. But for $80 a piece, you could do worse. And I think the Xplod HU line is coming around too. Sony needs to build back a rep. Get that CEA-2006...

Yeah, so. type R's hu? They're alright. I would totally sell those and get whole new RF setup. $800 I'd go with 2 RF punch stage 3's in a sealed box. With an MTX amp to bump those babies. About 500 for subs. and like 350 for a solid amp to push em'. Maybe less. Rockfords, are in my opinion...

I would say anything from the 7500's and up for MTX is superior to the Alpine R's. MTX's hit very, very hard. And theres a huge price gap, between MTX subs and Al pine's MTX sledgehammer, enclosed subs are the ish. They handle so much power, and hit so, so hard. 2 9500 10's was literally...

Im purchasing, in a few days, new front component speakers to replace old Alpine-Type S coaxials. I wanna run only front components and leave out rear fill. I just wanna make sure that the front speakers will be loud enough to satisfy the rear passengers of my relativly small Saturn wagon. Which...

I'm getting a new HU to replace my Sony Xplod MP3 player from last year or so. I need from my new player with high powered outputs to run front speakers by themselves and utilize separate signals to tweeter and midbass for superior imaging and sonic tuning abilities. The unit will be hooked to...

Yeah, like I said I heard the horribly powered 3 10" titanium series setup. I didn't care for the sound at all. But it most likely had nothing to do with the subs. I still don't understand why the owner of a stereo shop with a custom ported box installed in the trunk with amp racks built onto...

just a bit but...The Xtreme product line offers astounding value, "bang per $ so to speak" for being Directed's entry level, low end componenets. I own the 500 watt Xtreme monoblock amplifier, and used it to push 2 RF punch 12's. The subs were mounted in a sealed box, and this little $200 amp...
